Late 1944. Several hundred ‘lunatics’ and a single spy in hiding in the mental institution set up in a provincial mansion. Gestapo officer August Windisch turns up on a mission to identify the British agent in the few days remaining. But can he do it when the obsessively ordered and disciplined man is forced to submerge himself in irrationality in order to catch out the spy? Estonian surreal political allegory in the year of the Prague Spring.
